Title: Straddle safety pusher system
Inventor: WANG HENRY
IPC: B27B25/10
Filed: 2002-08-28
Abstract: An adjustable pushing apparatus (50) for safely moving a work piece (22) past a cutting tool (16). The apparatus includes a body (52), a first leg (56), a second leg (58) and a moveable center leg (60) defining a leg side surface (74) and two adjustable-width tunnels (62, 64) through which a cutting tool may pass. A handle (54) is moveable along a top surface (82) of the body to provide a balance of forces on both the inside cut portion (24) and the outside cut portion (26) of the work piece. Non-slip work piece-contacting surfaces (76) provide positive engagement with the work piece. A spacer (84) may be attached to either leg at a pluralityof vertical heights to balance the apparatus when the work piece is too narrow to make contact with a work piece-contacting surface on both side of the cut line (C). A dust shield (120) attaches to the handle keyways at two alternative locations. A tapering device (144) attaches to the apparatus for making taper cuts. The tapering device includes two memory stops for quickly changing between two selected cut angles. The tapering device may function as a connector between two pushing body structures for guiding a long piece of stock material past a cutting device.

Abstract: A rectangular bin for storing and transporting books at a sorting station in a library has a base on wheels with four side walls and a horizontal floor panel movable vertically within the bin. An optical sensor is mounted adjacent the upper rim and is controlled by a control unit such that during a filling mode of the bin, the detection of a book interrupting the beam lowers the floor panel so as to allow further filling of the bin up to the height of the optical sensor and during an unloading mode the operation is reversed. A battery pack is located in a cavity in the front wall and when being charged at a loading station the control unit automatically operates the filling mode and when disconnected the control unit automatically operates the unloading mode. The actuator has two pairs of levers and an electrically actuated screw for moving the floor panel with a lower end of the screw housed in a bottom housing hung below the base.
